Given that M2M could use output rate instead of ideal ratio rate
as well, it could be a configuration from my point of view. Yet,
we may just add it as a function parameter like you did, for now
to ease the situation, until we have such a need someday.

Not necessarily. Could put in the else path so its error message
would be more ideal ratio configuration specific.
